I've never understood why that whole 50/50 handoff thing even
happens. It makes more sense that the incoming votes wouldn't really be
affected by the fact that the two competitors happen to have the same
current number of votes. It's pretty obvious that it's rallying/cheating. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

Yeah, Sonic's on track for a 3000+ vote comeback here. That's insane. --- CB5 Points: 115/120, Current Oracle placement: 22/169 Now playing: Phoenix Wright 2, Final Fanasy XII, Children of Mana |

Multiple votes from the same proxy isn't the problem (that seems to be how Luster got caught and axed the second time). The problem is basically if someone has a bunch of different IPs they can vote from. I doubt Smurf has an army of zombie PCs or anything, but it's possible. Well, sure. I could technically do that myself. I can vote from here and then from my dad's house. But like I said, that's such a small scale, it's not even going to have a real effect. NOTE TO MODS: I don't actually do that, but I'm just saying I could if I felt the desire. If I win, please don't take my prizes! :) --- "An intellectual is a man who takes more words than necessary to tell more than he knows." |

Seriously, this makes no sense at all. Someone give me some vote trends and the lowdown of this match fast. Crono built up a 2100 vote lead over the night, Sonic stalled as we got closer to morning, and it's been all him ever since the sun came up. --- "My ambition is to create the coolest Link that's ever existed." -- Keisuke Nishimori, Twilight Princess |

2 58%s followed up by 2 more 55%s? Crono hurled everything he had at this match and is going to lose. What a testiament to the turn around Sonic has made since 2003. --- Smurf. The Cream of Sonic Fanboyism. |

And Sonic is still charging along. Crono won't be able to make this up if Sonic keeps crushing him every update. Bah, why this the year I back Crono and MM?! Time to start rooting for this account's bracket! Go Go MasterMoltar! --- Back from the shadows... |

this isn't vote stuffing. it's Crono turning into Magus overnight. It makes absolutely no sense at all though.

you mean the Crono that dropped 4% against a mediocre Bowser day vote
and 6% against an Auron that lost a day vote to Sub-Zero that lost 2000
votes to Master Chief? --- zizzy |

Ganon is nearly at Bowser's value in 2005, which is just right under Snake 2k5. Seeing him after TP is going to be awesome. --- "My ambition is to create the coolest Link that's ever existed." -- Keisuke Nishimori, Twilight Princess |

So basically the tran man is just totally acting like Bowser is
overrated due to the shaky Snake/Bowser match and his "underpeformance"
against Leon. And not only that, hes saying Sub-Zero has no strength! *Grabs a jet and flies outta here <_<* --- Proud Member of The Bonne Pirate Family and Creator of the Servbots! WWEGSB Hardcore Legend and Board 8er Masa/Hiko |

For Ganon to be ahead of Mega Man, Sonic needs 50.84% on Snake. For
Vincent to be ahead of Mega Man, Sonic needs 46.62% on Snake (all but
assured). --- "A strong man doesn't need to read the future. He makes his own." - Solid Snake "I'll show you what true speed really is!" - Sonic |
